Berenike Corcuera (b. 1994, Lima, Peru) engages with questions of spirituality and diasporic narratives through a series of large-scale appliqué works. The colorful works depict her own spiritual journey, from the syncretism of indigenous spirituality and catholic religious structures of Peru to her move to Europe and later search for identity and belonging in western contemporary spirituality. Presented as a cycle of life, the spiritual journey takes us through the different states of the human existence, with each state represented by one of the four classical elements - earth, air, fire, and water - referencing both ancient explanations of nature and matter common to many cultures in general, and her Peruvian ancestors’ religious beliefs in particular.
